+£1000 (2way) for +8fps.
+£1400 (3way) for +3fps.
Oh well, Andy was on to something after all, wasn't expecting much after the 690 price increase tbph.
Sorry old chum but, they will be glad they didn't buy a ticket.....
I'm sure you will enjoy your new toys when they arrive anyway, but you are a nutter!

Would not panic, Evga's will turn up and by the time the dust settles should be a better price

Bear in mind our cards are overclocked, is that titan stock?

Lol i will be gloating Titan users if my msi £275 7970 oc beats your £840 titan in a benchmark.
It probably has boost, but i doubt its fully overclocked.

Got the option to cancel if I can get a better price.
Will wait for the dust to settle, find out which partners have unlocked voltage (if any), further overclocking numbers and whether driver maturity has anything to add.
So tempted to drop the money on one for Day-0 good times but it's not worth it over a 680....yet.

yeah and it does say at the bottom that drivers arn't upto scratch with that particular title

It's not a "magical" driver, from what I understand, it is a driver that has been long rumoured to incorporate significant changes to the memory management, and it has been speculated to provide tangible performance increase.
Again all rumours and no facts - but it has been on the agenda for some time, it is not just something invented in this thread in response to Titan.
Nobody is doubting that it is 20% faster than 7970... just that it is a disappointing leap - it is what it is, still a 6xx series cpu that is 20% faster, generation is meaningless - it offers no new features or new architecture, which is normally what defines a "generation".
I'm also not trying to inflame the thread, at the end of the day people will believe what they want to believe, have their own biased or unbiased opinions, and ultimately buy what they want to buy.
Just stating that people were quick to argue that it wouldn't be only 20% faster, but when the reviews came out everyone suddenly went quiet.
